GRIB 4.1 Plugin problem

I am following the Vendée Globe regatta around the world using OCPN and GRIB 4.1 plugin. I am not able to adjust the ´focusing´of the grib arrows,which I find too dominating to read the text of the tracking points.

I know I have been able to adjust it previously through the GRIB 4.1 setup, but it does NOT work presently. See attached.

Anybody?

You would like to adjust the Grib arrows and isobars trensparency?
This never existed. May be you should a new task in the tracker.
Otherwise you can manage density of both parameters in the settings dialog.

Perhaps I saw it in qtVLM.... I know I used it somewhere.

Maybe an idea for GRIB 4.1 ??

The setup panel shows Density and Transparency ?

Yes transparency is only about colored overlay maps and density about particle maps.
But you can change the spacing for wind arrows and isobars.

Do you think all that blank space in the image and settings display that Tore posted could disappear? I think it should adjust automatically to the amount of space needed. Real estate is precious you know. If that could be improved it would be great.
